perhaps your already existing role was incorrectly named.

That's probably true. I think maybe the role was applied at the wrong level. It should have been applied to the new base class I was trying to name.

I've been meaning to ask for a while now: Are there any guidelines on how to name roles?

Like for inheritance there's the "is a", e.g. Broadcast is a PublicationEvent.

The PublicationEvent does HaveIdentifiers. I think the "does" comes from the Perl6 keyword. But in Moose the keyword is "with", so that confuses things a bit.

So, any good ideas on how to think or phrase the description of names for classes and roles?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Do you know where your variables are?
